    Literally the most confusing issue ever!

    Regarding just the pressure problems you say the expansion vessel was checked but it sounds like it might just not be big enough. This would cause the pressure to go up when the heating is on, more so if the UFH is on as that's even more water to expand, go over 3.5 bar then lose a bit of water...

    It is good idea go self-employed

    My personal advice is it's a good idea to go self employed in general, as long as you have the right mentality for it, i.e. some self discipline and can also live without really knowing what you're going to earn next week. There's a lot of freedom to it and also it really changes your attitude...

    Anyone fitted the Vaillant ecofit pure range

    I fitted one a couple of weeks ago and half regretted it to be honest. Not that it didn't work or anything, just that i fit a lot of Heatline Capriz 2 boilers for landlords (because they are cheap) and they look almost exactly the same inside (as others say i believe a Glowworm is basically the...

    Can you solve the mystery of the 70 degree hot water?? (unvented system)

    This may be a bit of a daft question but have you actually measured the temperature of the hot water? Is it definitely much higher than 55, as that's still hotter than you'd want to keep your hand under.

    Best knee pads

    I can second the Redbacks. They don't look like they will be comfortable at all but they are, and good support. I've dislocated my knee before, so don't really like kneeling on it at all but with these it is fine. They are a little on the heavy side i suppose

    compact float valve

    If it's a compact (as in Torbeck etc) they normally come with a filter/flow limiter in the bottom, have you taken that out? Or is that obvious?

    Immersion Heaters

    I think the quality of a lot of immersion heaters is just really poor these days. I used to work in a plumber's merchant and we got them returned faulty almost more than anything else.

    Vaillant spacer frame

    I've used one and it was pretty decent, though i couldn't help thinking you could knock something up as suggested above for a lot less money.

    Glowworm Cxi F.12 fault

    Cheers, that was going to be my next step. I thought it was going to be the expansion vessel or something because i was just told the pressure was dropping.

    Glowworm Cxi F.12 fault

    I've been to have a quick look at my mate's boiler and its displaying F.12 which is 'Connection fault between main pcb and display pcb'. The boiler is not firing up. The wire itself seems ok, no obvious breaks/damage (have not actually tested yet). I've had a word with a couple of people and...
